The streaker that didn’t streak

I think the YouTube-ographer tells the story of the streaker at the Baltimore Orioles and Los Angeles Angels the best:

“A drunken fan takes a bet from his friends that he can run across the field during the 9th inning of an Orioles game, touch the Southwest sign, and run back and touch his friends hand for $1,000!!! before the cops tackle him!”

Great attempt, but what I don’t understand is why the streaker would put no juke move in and run straight into the cop. You weigh 150 lbs, are you trying to truck the cop? And what if you were the group of friends. Are you hoping he gets caught, saying to yourself I don’t want to pay up a G note?
